I cowashed with Aussie Moist. Though I don't like the 'cone, I so needed the slip. I think I will have to cowash more often in general.

Doesn't DB Pumpkin come in 16 ounces now? I'm slowly trying to move away from buying 8 ounce products.

It's just not cost-effective for me anymore.erplexed

IDareT'sHair:

Yes, it does, but I had an 8 oz bottle from June I just got round to using up. I need to use up my stash before I repurchase the 16oz.

The 8 oz sizes are just not cost-effective, especially considering the shipping.

This morning I cleansed with daily fix and co-washed with Curl Junkie smoothing conditioner. My hair is really soft!

Although people may dispute my claims that daily cowashing preps your hair for a better flat iron result I still believe it does. I flat ironed my hair this weekend and it came out super straight with just one pass which it never has in the past. I feel that the constant moisture infused in the hair from cowashing has really helped the overall condition of my hair. My hair is super straight and silky. Pics to come.

I agree! My flatties are ALWAYS butter due to all the moisture!!

Last night I cowashed with my new L'Oreal EverCreme Conditioner. Its almost like a thick DC, but it works well as a cowasher too with a fair amount of slip.

When I twisted my hair last night, I used a tiny amount on a section as a leave-in/styler and I think it worked pretty well...

 

[IDareT'sHair]

Cowashed today with Oyin Honey Hemp

 

[beautyaddict1913]

Cowashed this morning with SSI honey rinse!

 

[IDareT'sHair]

I'm getting some of that during SSI Sale.

 

[beautyaddict1913]

Idk if you have tried it before but its pretty good IDareT'sHair - the avocado is a little better, but the rinse can be used as a DC and co-wash!

I am new to this challenge.

How many times per week will you cowash?
every other day

What conditioners are you planning to use?
Regis Olive Oil mixed with EVOO

What do you hope to achieve by cowashing?
Growth..my edges and nape thin out during the winter months due to PCOS. Co washing keeps these areas moisturized and will help me to reach my goal this year.

How often (if ever) will you shampoo?
1x per week or to get rid of buildup

This is the most recent pic that I have...please excuse my edges and horrible attempt at rollersetting. Upload failed...will be back to upload pic .

Thanks for the review on the Honey Rinse. I may skip it and just get some Okra instead.
